Great if you're looking for a fun, clichéd film
SPOILERS!
SHORT REVIEW: This is a really fun movie to pass the time because the leads have great chemistry, and it's a fun, cliché plot. I also really loved how open this film was about sexuality. I found that really refreshing.
LONG, WHINY REVIEW: I can't help but find it frustrating that the main girl stays in her relationship with her scumbag boyfriend when she's clearly unhappy. I don't care if you've been together for 5 years and want to marry, if your relationship has reached the point where you're cheating, break up!! And the way the male lead went out again straight away with his ex once it seemed clear to him that the female lead would never leave her boyfriend...I just can't relate to such neediness. I mean ffs, there's nothing wrong with being single, people!
Also, this was only a small moment in the movie but I really didn't like the weirdly casual reference made by one of the male lead's friends to paying for prostitution. He makes some whiny comments about how he's sick of paying for sex because you only get fake moans etc., and he wants the real deal. I understand that the attitude towards prostitution may be different from what I'm used to in South Korea, but I'm not up for such trivialisation of prostitution.
